Spend Skill Points Before Conversion?
well if you only have 100 sp and its mostly from lvling up and skill challenges i would say use them…… the thing is if you sit on 300 points you have to use em all to use up, since you cant know witch are from leveling, skill challenges or post 80 levels.
Most likely case:
If you have 100 skill points on your level 80 and 50 finished skill challenges:
You will get 100 spirit shards.
You will get 450 hero points.
Nothing lost and no worry. Spending no or later makes no difference.
I think that if the only skill points the alt has came from leveling and from skill challenges, then maybe those should be spent asap on forge mats (if you need forge mats) because they won’t be “extra.”
Unless somehow we’re getting credited with level/challenges and whatever we have loose and unspent is getting converted? However, once it’s converted, it just turns into the currency anyway.
It only matters if you want to squeeze all you can out of every point and will feel “cheated” if something falls through the cracks.
why should he/she get spirit shards for the skillpoints thats converted into hero points?
thats like having the cake and eating it to.

Nothing differentiates skill points based on source. As a one time conversion to a currency for account bound items it seems like a waste of resources to check if someone has points but locked skills to subtract the value of those skills from the points etc.
Also it isn’t a conversion from one to another. You are awarded hero points based on level and challenges. They aren’t magicking one thing to another.

Interesting. So the assumption is you will receive lvl 1-80 worth of Hero Points, however many Skill Challenges completed worth of Hero Points, and THEN any Skill Points you may have on your character, regardless of source, will be converted to shards? That’s best case scenario—I hope it’s true.
Does that mean the flip side of this is…. don’t unlock unnecessary skills with Skill Points right now, as it’s ultimately a waste… unless there is a refund.

That’s my assumption, in part because it’s technically easiest.
I agree and wish the post mentioning Spirit Shards was more clear, or that they would confirm this. There has to be other hoarders out there that want to know.
